Hi there,
I'm attending a basic multimedia on mobile devices course at
university. During that course I'll have to do a small project,
possibly together with one or two others. I want to do something audio
related of course. The university staff is pretty much focused on
video, so they won't be of much help.
I'm looking for a reasonably low skill/work project idea.
The problem is that I have to do this for iOS (hence the SEMI-OT). I
wouldn't want to develop for or use that horrible platform but if I have
to do it anyway I might as well get some audio coding experience.
Maybe there is something that would be useful to port? Maybe there's
some need for a iPad as remote control thingy? Or some little thing
from scratch?
Suggestions are welcome.
Regards,
Philipp

Hi Philipp,
A freind of mine ported the CSound API to objective C for iOS, and can run
csound using the normal API there. Somebody else used libPD in a
granular-synthesis app, using objective-C / C / PD. OpenFrameworks is
pretty cool for this type of thing, but if you have to use objective-C
there's some bindings for other things around.
If you're in need of ideas, let us know approx what area of stuff you're
interested in and then we can hit you with some brainstorming?
Also, if you design the app carefully, it could be trivial to port to
linux/android/embedded or something.

Hi Harry,
sorry for the late reply.
I really don't know what I want to do. A friend of mine suggested a
synth, but it's not as easy as he imagines. "Just slap together a sine
and a saw generator and modulate them".
I think I'll have to do the project with another guy, so I'll have to
convince him and the teacher of the idea, whatever it may be.
It would also be easier to do the thing in swift, apple's new
proprietary language, which seems to be generally easier to handle than
Objective-C. AFAIK it's possible to mix it with Objective-C though, so
the binding stuff should work.
What would I need to take are of to keep the thing portable, at least
to Linux? Objective-C compilers exist for Linux, Swift compilers do not
and probably will not in the foreseeable future. I think the UI and at
least parts of the audio code (I'm thinking about
synth <-> soundserver for example) would need to be rewritten anyway.
I think it would be more sensible to rewrite it in another language
entirely.
Regards,
Philipp
